For Broch, the singularity of his present lay in “the fact that an epoch captive to death and hell has to live within a style incapable of producing the Ornamental”. Broch’s ornament theory, in open opposition to that of Adolf Loos, comes from the writer’s early aesthetic concerns, formulated just when the controversy around the Looshaus in Vienna’s Michaelerplatz erupted towards 1910.Keywords: Hermann Broch, ornament, Style, Adolf Loos, Vienna School of Art History. En su primera novela, la trilogía Los sonámbulos, publicada entre 1930 y 1932, el escritor austríaco Hermann Broch –uno de los mayores representantes de la literatura crítica de la Viena finisecular junto a Robert Musil y Joseph Roth– introdujo en medio de la trama largos excursos ensayísticos que arrancan con un discurso sobre el ornamento arquitectónico. Para Broch, la singularidad de su presente radicaba en “el hecho de que una época prisionera de la muerte y del infierno tenga que vivir dentro de un estilo incapaz de producir lo ornamental”. La teoría brochiana del ornamento, en abierta oposición a la de Adolf Loos, proviene de las primeras preocupaciones estéticas del escritor, formuladas justo cuando estalló la polémica de la Looshaus en la Michaelerplatz de Viena hacia 1910.Palabras clave: Hermann Broch, ornamento, estilo, Adolf Loos, Escuela de Viena.
